The first-ever Armchair Dragoons Fall Assembly is being held at The Gamer's Armory in Cary, NC from 20-22 October 2023

-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-

We are planning on a full weekend of wargaming hosted by one of the best Friendly Local (War)Game Stores in the US, with a dedicated gaming and event area for our attendees, as well as giveaways, prizes, designer sessions, playtests, and probably a live broadcast or two.

We've got multiple tables for wargaming events, plus a large table for all-day monster wargaming across extended sessions.

-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-

Event schedule and registration information will be coming soon, so keep an eye out for the registration info to get announced.

-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-

As a reminder, Regimental Patron-level Patreon supporters get a free badge for all Armchair Dragoons-hosted events.

Any idea on when seats or tickets will go live. I want to book a hotel but won't until I have a ticket for my wife and I for the event.

By the end of this week for sure.  Sooner if I can get a couple of GM's locked down on their events so we're not just launching with a concept and a blank schedule.

There will still be plenty of room for GMs to add events, but we want to make sure there's some already there when we open badge sales.

OK, so a heads-up for the forum denizens before the public announcement:

Badge sales are now live

https://tabletop.events/conventions/armchair-dragoons-fall-assembly-2023

Specific event tickets next week after we lock down a few more events

Sadly, I have to pass on this as well.  :(  Hope you can share some photos when the time comes!

I suspect it may be a little off the beaten track for me.

You need to have a non-football-weekend assembly!

you have no idea how hard it was to find a workable weekend for this one, and we *still* have to work around the State Fair!


(I hope this doesn't mean you're bailing out on us!  :(  )

We've added
This Way Without An Enemy

and will be adding two sessions of
Works At War '85
tomorrow once I double check the times

I also have someone locally that wants to get a GBACW game on the table but needs to make sure scheduling works out

So things are starting to fill up a bit

Now I got to see if we can get some of our local designers to show up 😎
